Okay, I'm not kidding here. An old man in Alabama shot another old man in Alabama twice in the stomach. The two were supposedely friends. There was an argument over how tall James Brown, who is dead, used to be.
They couldn't agree. James Brown, it is reported, wore lifts in his shoes. How tall is he? I don't know. Do you? Is it worth shooting someone over?
Why did one man really shoot his friend? As human beings, we just hate it when people tell us we're wrong, I suppose.
Thoughts?

James Brown was 5'6, wheter or not that is tall is relative, fot me coming in at a staggering 5 feet, James Brown was a giant. Ultimately, who cares? I bet these guys didn't, not really anyhow. If your buddy shoots you over the height of a dead celebrity, chances are he was probably looking for a reason to shoot you. The topic of the argument wasn't relevant, it could have been over whether Count Chocula is better that Frankenberry(it is, by the way). I'm guessing it had more to do with Jim Beam than James Brown. I could be wrong, but you better think twice about pointing that out to me, I could shoot you.
Julie! I love the way you write! You make me laugh outloud!
Yes, He did tower over you, that Giant James Brown. He would have beaten you too, if you had married him!
you are dead wrong about Frankenberry, but you're too far to shoot, so I'll let it go.
I have to go with Julie on this one...Count Chocula is way better. As for the height debate, I have cried over a sink full of dishes before and can assure you it had nothing to do with the dishes. Luckly I wasn't armed at the time.
you know Janette, you and Julie are both too young to remember the original frankenberry, and that's your problem. The non-marshmellows in frankenberry used to be strawberry flavored alphabet-type quality. Now they are strawberry flavored captain-crunch tye things. Big difference.
Oh the good old days!
I think it is more like woman verses man not young and old. Women love chocolate and in my book chocolate trumps everything. Wow, did this get off subject. Chocolate aside, don't argue with someone packing heat. hehe
the guy wasn't just packing heat. his friend went out to his car, while pleading, and got his gone and shot at his friend. good buddies.
